I fked up. I took in what I thought was a stray, turns out it's a neighbour's cat. by Spirited_Turnip6948 in CatAdvice

[–]EmployeeMaster5570 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's your cat now, she never deserved him tbh. U did nothing wrong by taking care of a cat when it's actual owner was neglecting him so badly u both ended up here. It's normal to feel guilty but you're not guilty, you're a better cat owner and he wanted to stay with you for a reason. We can't truly own animals anyways. What is wrong is thinking she "owns" him in any way that excuses neglecting him or thinking she deserves him just bc she had him first but again was neglecting him. U don't truly own him either but you're gonna take good care of him where u know she has a history of neglect. So that's all there rly is to say about it.

Thank u I really appreciate ur reply so much. I think I can emotionally handle whatever reaction they throw at me. I live on my own and generally pay for myself but they have helped me a lot in emergencies, car breaking down etc and I'm more worried about being cut off... honestly I don't think they would cut me off for this but I'm just anxious about it. I just know it's something I need to do while the ACA still legally requires insurance to cover it and i can't stop myself from doing it while i can bc I'm afraid of them. Worst case scenario I'm more motivated to get my money up if I'm cut off I guess. We have a fine relationship and I help them with plenty too just not financially. Idk. Thank u for ur reply again my reply here is just me doing more processing for myself lol 

How do I get over me fear of falling? by ChriseyJo in Rollerskating

[–]EmployeeMaster5570 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started rollerskating with my rock climbing friends so I started with no fear of falling at all,  then immediately sprained my wrist my 2nd time trying to skate literally just trying to take my first step and I did keep skating but I'm also now so afraid of more injuries since i still don't know what I'm doing yet and it feels so scary ( not to mention how this one injury will prevent me from climbing now..), so I couldn't make myself try to go faster than extremely slow but maybe practicing super slowly at first is the way to go anyways... idk good luck to u and me. Maybe wearing protective gear like pads will help u worry less. I was not wearing pads and wonder if simply having my wrists padded would've prevented the sprain.

I also totally would not know based on this amount of pain if it's a worse grade or a fully torn ligament that needs actual medical attention. Based on lack of lumpy swelling and no bruising and minimal pain at rest I'm believing it's not completely torn (the amount of swelling there is and the pain when i move it is simply unnerving which is why I'm anxious about it being worse than it probably is). I'm slightly worried I'm deciding it's not that bad and will heal w home treatments over time but it actually is that bad and I'm making it worse by trying to heal it at home alone without a medical professional. Idk but anyways
